My only concern is this long stretch without a day off will have a toll. We just need the Cardinals to cool off by then Yeah. I'm a bit worried about the rest of this 23 game stretch. The Mets suck. but it looks like we're getting both deGrom and Thor, and then on the road for Braves/Phillies/Brewers/Nats. I think we're going to give back a few games during this stretch, so it would be really nice to be up 4+ going into Monday. That being said, the Cubs have 35 games left. If they go 18-17 they'll end up with 92 wins. The Cards would need to go 20-13 (98 win pace) and/or the Brewers would need to go 20-12 (101 win pace) to match that. At least it looks like the wind will be going out pretty good vs deGrom and Thor and their offense sucks and have Hamels going in one of the games. So at least it’s about as good conditions as possible facing those two.
